Envoy vows Russia will never sit by as memory of those who defeated Nazism is defamed
Andreyev called for preserving the memory "in all its entirety, without any exemptions or omissions, to protect it from distortion favoring some political climate, to protect the good name of living and fallen heroes, civilians who fell victims to the Nazis and their collaborators, so that future generations will always remember the horror of the Holocaust and the death camps, so that humanity will never again allow such madness"
WARSAW, January 27. /TASS/. Russia considers the remembrance of World War II and its victims the paramount factor in rejecting the very idea of war and will never allow the denigration or defamation of the memory of its descendants and ancestors who defeated Nazism, Russian Ambassador to Poland Sergei Andreyev said Wednesday, speaking at a ceremony dedicated to the 76th anniversary of the Red Army’s liberation of the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp.
